2. Don't forget ...
Katrina victims who drowned while the Idiot strummed the guitar.

And the death toll will rise this winter: How many house fires will claim lives because people are burning paper/wood in their homes to keep warm?

How many elderly and/or sick will die due to not being able to afford to keep their homes warm due to fuel prices?

How many elderly and/or sick will die due to lack of prescription medication that is no longer covered by Medicaid, and is unaffordable otherwise?

How many working people will die in their workplaces, thanks to no enforcement of safety regulations?

The list goes on and on ...

8. I was going to list that too
I wonder if they'll ever admit that the 3,000+ that are still "missing" really died?

3. Culture of death
Typical of this administration is the bold-faced lies offered as an alternate reality to their followers.
So we have the "culture of life" designed to portray the repukes as THE party for all things breathing!! Amazing.
Bush asleep at the wheel on 9-11? No problem! We'll present him as a strong and decisive leader!

4. Both have a dictator mentality......
Edited on Sun Jan-22-06 01:51 PM by Double T
with NO REGARD for the rights, ideas or lives of others. Both are a serious problem. BOTH need to be removed from political office. One out of two isn't good enough!!!!

6. Impossible to count
Many of his policies will be killing people long after he has left office.

One example: the rescue/cleanup workers at the WTC site who are now dying from being poisoned by toxins, after the BushCo EPA told them it was perfectly safe.

Not to mention all those who will suffer and/or die from the tons of depleted uranium being showered on our soldiers and Iraqi civilians alike . . .

7. How many are we responsible for?
His policies cost so many lives yet we just let it happen. At what point does the blame no longer fall on him but on us for doing nothing about it? Just a stupid thought that popped into my head.

10. Don't forget the Katrina victims
We may never know their true numbers. Fellow Americans who died in the streets and attics and highway overpasses of New Orleans while they waited for the help that never came. Disgraceful.
